Buffy The Vampire Slayer: Why Amber Benson Didn't Want Tara Resurrected
Amber Benson opens up about why she didn’t want Tara to be resurrected on Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Benson played Tara Maclay on Buffy, joining the show in season 4 and gradually striking up a romantic relationship with Alyson Hannigan’s Willow Rosenberg. The couple, breaking ground for representation in the early 2000s, quickly grew to become fan-favorites. Tara’s death in the Buffy season 6 episode “Seeing Red” was met with anger and dismay. It also prompted discussions of how gay characters are too often killed off to serve narrative purposes, in a trope sometimes referred to as “burying your gays.”
